Matt it can take up to 8 weeks for a new drug to start being effective. There's no magic pill, unfortunately, believe me I've searched. I don't think you're showing drug-seeking behavior now, but you have to recognize that nothing will make you feel like short-term stimulant use, not even long-term stimulant use.
The heavy doses of Zyprexa and Prozac you're on can cause serious apathy and anhedonia. Is there any reason you're on an anti-psychotic? What's your dx?
If I were you I'd drop everything and wait for it all to wash out of your system then start over. You can start with drugs like Strattera if you want, then go from there.
C-PTSD: social phobia, major depression, dissociation.
Currently: 300mg amitriptyline single dose at night.
Also: Allegra, 1000mg Vitamin C.
Improving.
